"STAY IN ATTACK FORMATION!!"
" TIE Fighter: iconic. Arguably the most inspired design of all the Star Wars ships. This set was my first UCS set, and the difference is telling. Very well thought-of, careful and elaborate building techniques, stable structure and a great attention to detail. It looks amazing when finished, and the build, although quite repetitive - wich would be unavoidable, due to the ship in question, essentially a ball with two huge grillpans on the sides - is very gratifying, because you can see right away that the outcome will be fenomenal.
A few cons: the 2x2 transparent brick holding the frontal dome screen. (Should have some other attachment method that would leave the screen unimpeded, like a hinge on the edge of the dish);
the pilot controls are not in accordance to the quality of the set. I feel they deserved a better solution, or at the very least, they should be black;
Aside these (trifle) remarks, it is really a brilliant piece. Great addition to the collection. "

Great TIE, average A-Wing
" I bought this for myself, since I'm looking to restart my long lost childhood collection. Had a little "help" from my 3yr old daughter, and we were both hooked. I got this and couldn't stop building until I was done. My kids will play with it, but for now it's on display. I believe that LEGO is the quintessencial brain toy, so my children can expect to get many more sets. "
